Receta Fish Tikka
Tried this recipe after seeing a popular cookery show,
Annie’s Kitchen. It came out really well so thought of sharing it with
you. You can either grill or bake tikkas in the oven, use an electric toaster
grill or on stove top. It’s a very easy and hassle free recipe. You can
marinate the fish pieces and keep it overnight in the fridge before grilling.
It is a perfect recipe to serve as a starter or as a main or side dish. A great
addition to a party menu :) :) ...

fridge).
Just before grilling, add onion, capsicum and tomato
pieces to the marinated fish and well.
Skewer the fish and vegetables alternately on skewers or
tooth picks.
If you are using an oven, place the skewered tikkas on
the wire rack. Brush tikkas with melted butter and grill for 10-15 minutes
overturning them every few minutes.
If you are using stove top, melt little butter in a
non-stick tava, add skewered fish tikkas and grill on medium flame until all
sides are lightly browned and fish is cooked well.
